Garage Sale Goodies

This post may contain affiliate or advertiser links. Please review my disclosure policy.
One of my most favorite things to do is going to garage sales. It has actually proven to be one of my best money savers as well! My garage sale excursion a few weeks back while my mother was in town was no exception! It was actually a homeschoolers goldmine…a retired teacher unloading her stuff! Check out all of the goodies that I got for $20!!!

Pictured above: 6 boxes of crayons, 13 boxes of white & yellow chalk, plastic dominoes (much better than the loud clanging ones we were using), LOTS of paint brushes, 3 packs of permanent markers (Note to self: do NOT let the kids use these), a USA Bingo game, a box full of rubber bands, a round and square geoboard, a geared clock and LOTS of other math manipulatives.

Oh, but I am not done yet…there is even more…

Pictured above: stacking bins, TONS of tempra paint (all of which are at least 3/4 full), and last but not least a big ole box FULL of construction paper…every color in the rainbow and then some!!!!!

Yes, ALL of this for $20!

So, the moral of all this…don’t forget to check out a few garage sales this summer…you never know what goodies you may find!!!

P.S. Don’t forget to enter my giveaway for the Find It Games Deluxe Edition!

  2. Oh I'm so with you on the garage sales. it amazes the new stuff (unopened, still shrink wrapped, price tags on it) stuff you can find. Sometimes you have to go to a few bad ones to find a good one. But when you find a great garage sale, it's so worth it!
